 Booking a private photo expert allows you to select the below carefully planned routes or when your photo guide contacts you directly (your email required), to make desired changes where possible according to your interest including architecture and photojournalism.
Wall Street's Up - Brooklyn Bridge Down
Meeting Point: Financial District, 26 Wall Street
Daily 8:30am
First we'll meet up on the steps of Federal Hall, where George Washington was inaugurated as the first U.S. President. From there, you'll get a nice view of the New York Stock Exchange nearby. Most of the streets in the Financial District are extremely narrow. This, combined with some of Manhattan's tallest skyscrapers, creates an experience similar to standing at the bottom of a canyon. Many of these streets see very little sunshine, even at high noon. This will create unique opportunities for low-light daytime photography. As the sun trickles its way down into the bottom of the canyon, we'll venture over to the historic South Street Seaport district and then over to the Brooklyn Bridge with long views of the Statue of Liberty to the southwest.
Downtown Eclectic
Meeting Point Sheridan Square, Greenwich Village
Daily 8:30am
First we'll meet up in the heart of Greenwich Village, Sheridan Square.
Greenwich Village is known for being "off the grid." That is, while nearly all of Manhattan was designed as a rigid grid of avenues running north and south perpendicular to streets running east and west, the streets of Greenwich Village retain their original haphazard layout, complete with diagonals, odd angles and dead-end alleys. Even life-long New Yorkers can get lost trying to navigate these streets.
One very scenic block that appears to be absolutely unchanged since the 1790s is Commerce and Barrow. Here you'll definitely get a unique perspective on how the scales and perspectives of the Village can change from block to block. From there we'll head to the famous Washington Square Park and continue into From SoHo, Little Italy and before you know it, you'll be in Chinatown.
Bright Lights - Big City
Meeting Point Bryant Park Fountain
Daily except Sunday 7pm
During this tour you will be photographing some of central Manhattan's brightest, most classic nighttime spots. Think "Bright Lights, Big City." Starting off, we will meet at the fountain on the west end of Bryant Park, opposite the New York Public Library. Bryant Park itself is very photogenic, with people relaxing on the lawn or in chairs surrounding it. Take in commanding views of the Chrysler Building, which can be seen along 42nd Street.
We'll walk to nearby Times Square, an international icon of New York City known for its sophisticated electronic billboard imagery. It is there that you will be in the unmistakable heart of New York and come away with photographs that show the diversity and energy of the Big Apple. See all the faces in the crowd, the wonder and amazement of the Great White Way. Walking up Broadway through Times Square to the instantly recognizable lights of Radio City Music Hall and Rockefeller Center.. We'll take in all of the Art Deco style architecture, see some famous sculptures and maybe even some of the holiday decorations. Then it's on over to Fifth Avenue, passing world-class stores such as Saks Fifth Avenue, Bergdorf Goodman, Tiffany & Co., and end at the Plaza Hotel, located on Central Park So.
